The Kim Arena Team is proud of their client's satisfaction with the home buying and selling experience!

"Kim far exceeded our expectations! She is truly special & professional. She took the time to really understand what we were looking for. She knew which properties we would and would not like before we did. She was more than a realtor; assisting us with every aspect of the search, purchase, inspection, etc.

-Mr. & Mrs. Sam M.

"Moving is a challenge no matter the circumstances, but when the move is to an area about which you have no prior knowledge, it can be particularly difficult. Fortunately, upon learning of our imminent move to Orlando, we had the good fortune to be referred by a future colleague to Kim Arena. Sometimes, you just get lucky. From the very first day it was obvious that Kim took a personal interest in fulfilling the hopes we had for our new home. That, plus Kimís knowledge of the area and local real estate market put us at ease in a way that was truly a gift. Kim is professional, experienced, and at every turn just the advocate we wanted in our corner while negotiating a process as complicated as finding the house to make our new home. From the initial search to the closing, Kim not only met but exceeded our expectations, and it is with pleasure, enthusiasm, and without reservations, that we can recommend her to anyone contemplating a move to the Orlando metropolitan area."

-Dr. Chris and Nancy P.

"Terri Schon was very professional, knowledgeable, and happy & willing to accommodate our needs. Terri immediately went to work on the listing and sale of our investment condo. She kept us posted every step of the way and the end result was better than expected.

She did a fabulous job throughout this long distance transaction."

-Diana and Steve T.

"Kim, thank you so much for all you have done for us over the last couple of months in marketing and sellling our home. Your professionalism in every aspect has been evident. From the moment you began working for us your marketing was implemented quickly, effectively and consistently. Once listed with you, the house went into contract and the deal was closed in a very timely fashion after having been previously with another realtor from a different company. When problems arose you had suggestions and solutions; you were part of the answer, not the problem!"

-Mr. and Mrs. Lee S.

"Kim Arena did a truly outstanding, over the top, job of assisting us in selling our home. The process started with guidance on both what to do and what not to do in preparing our home to be listed. We had planned on doing some things to the home to get it ready that Kim felt we would not get a return on the investment. This saved us a few thousand dollars and even more headaches. Kim provided us a broad range for a listing price and the comps to support the recommended range. She provided data and really helped us set the right price. We were a lot more interested in a quick sell than going for every dime we could get. We made the listing contingent on closing on a new home in Tn. As soon as we closed on the TN home, Kim rearranged our furniture and took the photos. She really showed off the high points of the home. She did this both from her own experience and listening to Sherry and I talk about what we enjoyed about the home. We were in TN with two dogs at our FL home that are very important to us. We requested that Kim not use a lock box or let other realtors in our home unaccompanied until we returned from Tn. The dogs and security system were too critical to us to trust wide open entry to all Orlando realtors while we were out of town. Our neighbors told us that Kim was there most of the weekend showing the home.

The net result was two offers, one from a cash buyer at full listing price. The catch was we had to be out in a week and had to plan and schedule movers before the buyer inspection contingency was removed. This was the point were trust became a crucial element. By this point we had enough trust in Kim that she likely could have talked us into anything. Kim insured the closing would happen by confirming funds were available and requested a significant deposit when the inspection contingency was removed. Kim talked with Sherry about our logistics around getting out of the house and arranged with the title company to sign the documents the day before the official close date. This saved us from driving back and forth from The Villages and allowed us to drive to TN one day earlier. The net result was a perfect transaction that closed on schedule with no issues for the full list price. Sherry and I had a great experience in selling our home and we feel Kim was responsible for that experience. Kim was attentive and responded timely to all inquiries. Many of her emails were late at night. Kim's hard work made everyone a winner in this deal."
